If you’re looking for adventure, head to Hobie Beach for an exhilarating windsurfing lesson. If you’d rather show off your bold new bikini or join a party then South Beach should be your destination. Nearby Flamingo Park has bike paths, tennis courts and playgrounds for those with families and is a great place to spend an afternoon outdoors. Take a break from the sun’s rays and enjoy up-scale shopping along Ocean Drive, people-watching on Lincoln Road and delicious dining experiences at local restaurants like Las Olas Café and Vintro Kitchen.
